"Stop blaming and hating Bush for everything everything from Obama's election to giving money to Africa that have been wasted by the dems anyway, to help fight an epidemic that if left unchecked would eventually multiply exponentially thereby putting the U.S and the rest of the world at great risk."

These emails were circulating, meaning to various other people/agencies, thus either the Bush Administration was incompetent or did not care to investigate/enforce the law *if* evidence was truly there.

As for international welfare I take the locals word over your cheer leading for benevolent incompetence:

Huge bureaucracies are financed (with the aid money), corruption and complacency are promoted, Africans are taught to be beggars and not to be independent. In addition, development aid weakens the local markets everywhere and dampens the spirit of entrepreneurship that we so desperately need. As absurd as it may sound: Development aid is one of the reasons for Africa's problems. If the West were to cancel these payments, normal Africans wouldn't even notice. Only the functionaries would be hard hit. Which is why they maintain that the world would stop turning without this development aid.James Shikwati,

Enjoy pimping "moderate" heroes, the statist are counting on your vote.

BTW, how large did the debt expand under a conservative "practical" Pres? If that is a conservative I wonder what your definition of a liberal is. Sorry, you need to go back 60 more years; the last fiscally sound small government Pres was not Reagan but rather the tag team action of Harding and Coolidge.

Reagan talked a good game, but became a practical prisoner to Tip O'Neil despite having the GOP in charge of the Senate for 6 years.

Should practicality be the god of so called "conservatism" in order to win elections? $16 trillion with no end in sight says you are insane to root for practicality, but at least you "won", rah-rah-rah, go big government go...(The game: Let us institute tax cuts and in exchange we will institute spending increases, pretty please Democrats our lobyists insist on this system if Repubs are running the Executive Branch) I am sick of that game and its gone on far too long, but please keep supporting the game, anything to help you sleep better I guess.
